Chapter 154
"No, it's been raining these past couple of days, and the facilities at the
amusement park are very slippery. Felicia is too young. How about we go in a few days?" Ophelia Parker said.
"Mom, how about I take Felicia to the amusement park inside the mall? I've saved up a lot of Cosmocoin, enough to buy tickets for both of us," Finlay suggested.
Finlay held Felicia Knight with one hand and tugged at Ophelia's sleeve with the other.
"How about I go with you?" Ophelia looked at the eager expressions of Finlay and Felicia, and her heart softened.
"No, you're pregnant, and you're almost due. It's too dangerous for you to be running around," Samson Knight spoke urgently, clearly worried.
"Can't you just stay at home and play with Felicia? Why can't you wait a few days to go to the amusement park?" he scolded Finlay loudly.
"Okay..." Finlay lowered his head and could only pull Felicia into the house.
While Finlay was daydreaming in his room, Felicia quickly ran into his room, holding his hand as she asked, "Finlay, Dad and Mom are resting in the backyard. Let's go to the amusement park, okay?"
"We shouldn't. Dad and Mom told us not to go out." Finlay bit his lip, glancing secretly at his parents' room.
"They're asleep. Let's go quietly, and we'll come back early," Felicia whispered again.
After hesitating for a moment, Finlay nodded. So, he took Felicia to the
amusement park in the mall. At first, they had a great time climbing and playing in the amusement park.
But after half an hour, a large chandelier fell from the ceiling for some unknown reason, and it hit Felicia directly.
At that moment, Finlay was on the other side of the park playing on the slide and couldn't reach her in time.
After the ordeal, he immediately ran over to Felicia and hugged her, while the staff quickly called for an ambulance.
He didn't remember how he got to the hospital. He only remembered that when Samson arrived, he kicked him far away with one foot, making him fall to the ground in pain and unable to get up for a while.
His usually gentle mother also coldly ignored him, her face filled with anxiety as she stared at the emergency room.
No one paid any attention to him. He lay on the ground for a long time, and when the pain finally subsided, he got up by himself.
"Didn't I tell you not to take Felicia out to play?" Samson became even angrier and slapped him several times, seeing that he had gotten up.
"But it was Felicia who wanted to go out..." Finlay muttered in defense.
"If you hadn't suggested going to the amusement park, would she have even thought of playing?" Samson slapped him again when he heard his defense.
Finlay could only feel a buzzing in
his ears, and there was a metallic taste in his mouth. He kept his head downnoveldrama
and said nothing. He just hoped that Felicia would be alright.
The door to the emergency room opened, and the doctor's face was grim. "I'm sorry. We did everything we could."
As soon as he said those few words, Samson's and Ophelia's faces changed. Finlay's head seemed to explode with a ringing noise.
Though it was an accident, the amusement park and the mall were responsible.
In the end, the mall was found to be at fault for not regularly inspecting the facilities, and the amusement park had failed to notice the faulty chandelier. So, the two responsible parties were sentenced and sent to Interstellar Prison.
Finlay, being a child, was not held responsible.
However, when they returned home, Samson and Ophelia didn't show him any
sympathy. Instead, they continued to beat and scold him.
The patrol guards in Stormclaw City
only gave Samson and Ophelia a
verbal warning due to his gender. As
soon as the patrol guards left
Samson and Ophelia went back to
hitting and scolding him.
It was precisely because of the beatings that Ophelia became worked up, and her
stomach started hurting terribly. She was immediately sent to the hospital.
After a day and night in the hospital, she gave birth to two stillborn babies, both female.
